Sharon Osbourne

America’s Got Talent judge Sharon Osbourne, has backed new American Idol judge, Ellen DeGeneres.

“She will be a breath of fresh air on that show, a complete breath of fresh air,” the 56-year-old told People magazine. “It’s new blood. And [American Idol] needed something new to happen.

“I think if they had replaced Paula with another singer, Janet Jackson or J.Lo, it would have been too expected. Oh well, there we go, another singer. And with Ellen, you’ve got someone who knows about entertaining, and everything that goes into it, which also speaks for the people.”

America’s Got Talent – Cas Haley

Wow. Britain’s Got Talent has barely ended and yet America’s Got Talent has already begun stateside. I have to confess to having the ‘got talent’ bug at the moment, so I checked out a couple of videos on YouTube.

The one below is an audition from a guy called Cas Haley. Cas is a stay-at-home dad from Chicago. After the obligatory heartfelt VT intro (blah blah…wife and kid….blah blah blah), he strides onto the stage and launches into an acoustic version of Walking On The Moon. Crowd goes wild. Hasselhoff grooves along (looking every bit of his 80 years).

The funny thing about watching these shows is the huge amount of cross-over between Simon Cowell’s shows in the US and the UK. America’s Got Talent has Piers Morgan (fresh from Britain’s Got Talent) and Sharon Osbourne (from our very own X Factor).

If rumours are to believed, Randy Jackson was being considered as a judge on X Factor this year, but Brian Friedman (from Grease Is The Word) may have the gig. It’s all very confusing and incestuous. I need to go and lie down…..

David Hasselhoff Says He Was Conned by Simon Cowell

David Hasselhoff says he didn’t really want to be a judge on America’s Got Talent — but he was “conned” into doing it by the show’s executive producer Simon Cowell.

Hasselhoff told Newsweek magazine: “This is not my cup of tea. I signed on for one season, and Simon Cowell conned me into it: ‘Here’s a lot of money,’ and ‘it’s like The Gong Show.’”

So, it seems Hasselhoff won’t be coming back for the show’s second season, which begins in January. “I’m trying to get on a sitcom or maybe even my own show, Travels With the Hoff,” he told Newsweek.
